I assume that's so they can lock in a rate?

Never heard of it but I would be asking your solicitor what the risks are ASAP.

Yeah it's got to be something like that, maybe his mortgage offer is about to expire (we "sold" a few months ago).

The most obvious risk is that our purchase falls through and we're left homeless. Fuck that.

I don't really see any upside for you other than potentially stopping this buyer pulling out but I imagine they're unlikely to do that as it's not like they can just find another house and complete in the same timeframe.

What's the sweetener for you?
